Chapter 1042: Chapter 1042: Six Rings, Space Control

He gently moved his body, and in the next instant, he had broken through the surface of the water.

An indescribable sense of lightness spread throughout his body, and everything around him seemed to become clearer. He could even see the expressions of the Life Spirits floating in the air and feel their emotional fluctuations.

He looked down at his own hands, his skin crystal clear, through which he could faintly see the pale golden liquid flowing in his veins.

Everything seemed different; here, he felt like a king who could control all the life energy around him. His senses weren’t confined to just this location; he could even feel everything inside Eternal Sky City.

With one step, he floated onto the shore.

Had he broken through? Had he truly made a breakthrough?

“Xuanyu, come here,” Tang Wulin’s voice echoed in his mind.

Lan Xuanyu looked up subconsciously, just in time to see Tang Wulin standing by the bed on the second floor of Sea God’s Pavilion.

With just a slight thought, his body flew up, no longer needing to control the Wind. In the next moment, he had entered through the window and landed in front of Tang Wulin.

“Put on some clothes first,” Tang Wulin said with a smile.

Lan Xuanyu blushed as he realized that his clothes had disappeared during the breakthrough. He quickly retrieved a new set from his Ring of Destiny and dressed himself.

“This breakthrough is an evolution of your life state,” Tang Wulin said with a smile. “In some sense, your life level has reached the God Rank, nourished by the Life Essence of the Eternal Tree. That’s why you could withstand the clash of the two bloodlines during your Sixth Ring breakthrough and managed it quite smoothly.”

“I have six rings now?” Lan Xuanyu asked in astonishment.

“Hmm. However, with such a big leap in power, you’ll need continual practice to master this strength. It’s good timing for you to stay with me for a while, and I’ll guide you in your cultivation and control.”

“Okay,” Lan Xuanyu agreed excitedly, eager to test the extent of his abilities post-breakthrough.

After contemplating for a moment, Tang Wulin continued, “There’s also the matter of something within your body, a spatial property. According to the usual progression, your Silver Patterned Bluesilver Grass should awaken the Dark attribute with your sixth soul ring, but you’ve awakened the spatial property instead.”

“A spatial property?” Lan Xuanyu had a moment of realization. “Ah, how could I have forgotten about her? I was supposed to bring her to you this time for you to help me safeguard and nurture.”

As he spoke, he called out in his mind, and the Treasure Hunting Beast instantly emerged.

Seeing the Treasure Hunting Beast, Tang Wulin couldn’t help but frown and said with a wry smile, “This servant of yours has indeed brought us quite a surprise before.”

The Treasure Hunting Beast chuckled, continuously nodding flatteringly towards Tang Wulin. In a way, Tang Wulin could be considered its half-master. But it was incredibly clever, and, given the choice, it would definitely prefer to follow Lan Xuanyu, who might become the Dragon God in the future!

Considering Lan Xuanyu’s current cultivation speed and breakthrough progress, that possibility was becoming increasingly likely.

“Let Little Lazy Bug come out,” Lan Xuanyu said to the Treasure Hunting Beast. “Was it her that caused my sixth soul ring to awaken with spatial property?”

The Treasure Hunting Beast nodded repeatedly and said, “I’m the one who made it do that. When I thought about your future need to infiltrate various places, I realized that having a spatial property would be more helpful to you. You won’t be able to break through to the next level anytime soon anyway, so awakening the spatial property first is more useful.”

Lan Xuanyu nodded; indeed, if he could successfully harness the spatial property, it would play a bigger role in terms of safety.

Tang Wulin also agreed, “Space and time are the most mystical existences within the universe. Even I can’t claim to have truly mastered the ability to harness space. If your sixth soul ring awakened with the dark attribute, gathering the six fundamental attributes of water, fire, earth, wind, light, and darkness, your combat strength increase would be somewhat larger. But the advantage of awakening the spatial property first is that it’s an evolutionary attribute of the fundamental attributes, which means it ranks higher than the six fundamental attributes. It will be very beneficial for your self-protection. Moreover, understanding the spatial property earlier means that when you reach the God Rank, it will help even more with your advancement in the future.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “Uncle Le, I’ve always been curious, if Teacher Nana could harness nine properties, with the first seven being water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space, then what are the eighth and ninth properties?”

Tang Wulin spoke earnestly, “They are destruction and creation. Or rather, destruction and life. They are the beginning and end of the universe, the most mystical attributes. Even Nana hasn’t fully mastered these two properties. Ten thousand years ago, she was only able to proficiently control the first seven properties. Whether to master destruction or creation first, either is possible. That’s why I’m saying it’s not entirely bad that she has sunk deep into the core of a Constant Star; I feel she seems to have gained insight into creation. Once she awakens, she might be able to enter that state and advance to the Super God Level.”

Lan Xuanyu expressed his surprise, “Creation and destruction?”

Tang Wulin said, “The real meaning of creation and destruction can only be completely controlled at the God King level. Why was the Dragon God split into the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King? In a sense, the Golden Dragon King represents the destructive power of the Dragon God, while the Silver Dragon King represents the power of creation. I am now starting to sense a bit of the mysteries of destruction. If Nana can grasp the secrets of creation, we’ll use all our strength to help you achieve your breakthrough when the time comes.”

Lan Xuanyu let out a sigh and turned to the Treasure Hunting Beast beside him, “Where is Little Lazy Bug?”

“It’s asleep,” the Treasure Hunting Beast said somewhat helplessly. With a flash of light, Little Lazy Bug appeared in its hands, being held.

Little Lazy Bug showed no signs of waking up, its body shimmering with silver light, quite peculiar.

Lan Xuanyu said, “Uncle Le, Little Lazy Bug is of great importance, so I haven’t told the academy about it. Actually, on No. 76 Planet…”

He recounted the origin of the Void Bug. As he listened, Tang Wulin was also somewhat dumbfounded.

Tang Wulin thought that he was rather daring back in his day, but his audacity was only based on the foundations of Douluo Planet. His son, however, was really something – taking away the Sky Domination Clan’s space origin and even blasting their place.

“I also don’t know where to place her so she won’t be discovered. But undoubtedly, after being nourished, she will definitely be able to produce Space Source Crystals in the future. Her food is magic silver, and I brought a lot this time. It should be enough for her to eat for a while. I think only you have the capacity to take care of her. Whether or not to inform the academy of her existence, you decide. As for where she should live, I have no idea.”

Tang Wulin looked at the Void Bug in front of him and, after a moment’s thought, said, “It’s very difficult to conceal her spatial fluctuations. She must be an origin of space, likely existing since the beginning of the universe. She must have had a very important status in the previous Divine Realm, as one of the foundations of the Divine Realm. It’s unexpected that she ended up in the outside world. We must protect her well. If your grandfather brings the Divine Realm back, let her return to it. It will be very beneficial for the Divine Realm. As for where to keep her now, I do have an idea. The best way to conceal her aura is in a standalone space. Let’s put her in the Seven Holy Abyss; because of the depletion of the destructive power, it has already become unstable. The addition of the Void Bug will certainly stabilize it again, and it can also cultivate there for a long time. I will inform the academy about this matter, but only up to the Sea God Pavilion Master. This will be the academy’s greatest secret.”
